The controversy over Nigerian music star, Innocent ‘2Baba’ Idibia’s divorce from his wife, Annie Macaulay, and his proposal to Edo State lawmaker, Natasha Osawaru, has taken a new twist with his family writing petition to the Department of State Security (DSS).
In the petition obtained on Friday, the family declared the singer missing, seeking intervention from the DSS.
The petition signed by Wilson Anuge on behalf of Anuge, Anuge & Co. read: “We are writing to urgently seek your assistance regarding a profoundly troubling situation involving a member of the Idibia Family, Mr Innocent Idibia (also known as Tuface or 2Baba) who our client reasonably believe may be missing since Monday 10 February, 2025.
“We believe that Mr Innocent left his residence in the early hours of 10 February 2025 in his loungewear, suggestive that he was going on his habitual walk, but never returned home since then. Despite the best efforts of members of his family, his staff and management of his Record Label to reach or locate him, including reaching out to his friends and acquaintances, they have been unable to establish any contact or ascertain his whereabouts.”
The family of the ‘African Queen’ hitmaker revealed that since he left home, neither his record label, staff, nor close associates were able to reach him.
2Baba’s family expressed deep concern over his sudden disappearance, emphasising that his absence without any communication had raised serious alarm among them and his friends.
Earlier on Friday, 2Baba’s mother, Rose Idibia, alleged that Ms Osawaru, the deputy majority leader of the Edo State House of Assembly, had cast a spell on her son.
Mrs Idibia claimed the singer was not in his right senses when he proposed to the 30-year-old lawmaker and pleaded with her to release him.
